Re: I bought a batch of bike stuff recently, and there was this one part I just can't figure out. It ratchets like a freewheel, but is too small, and hasn't got threads to attach it to a hub. here are a couple pictures, the only other clue is that it's labelled phillips.

So are there any ideas as to just what I've got?
Steve,
It's just a guess, but it looks like it may have came from an adult trike or some sort of trike coversion kit? Does it have any sort of keyway inside? Is there any brand markings?
